Eastex Solar

Eastex Solar operates as electricians out of Palestine, TX, with a clear focus on solar power setups for local homes and properties. They handle everything from full panel arrays on new builds like barndominiums to fixing older systems that never worked right the first time. Homeowners in the area turn to them after shopping around because their crews stay local and know how to get jobs done without dragging things out or hiding costs. The team steps in on projects that need roof fixes along with electrical work, and they handle custom additions that fit the house instead of forcing a one-size approach.

Their work covers installing large arrays such as the 48-panel system put on one barndominium by technicians Cal and Reece, plus complete removals and rewiring on 34-panel setups where previous installers left loose connections and roof damage. Crews also build solar porches that match existing home styles and run repairs on systems that sat broken for years. They show up fast when called, pull the panels, fix the underlying issues, and put everything back with proper wiring so the power flows steady. Customers note the crews explain options clearly during the job and stick around for follow-up checks to keep the systems running.

Work quality stays high because the electricians check details like wiring and mounting instead of rushing off, while response speed means problems get addressed in days rather than weeks. Fair pricing shows up when they lay out numbers upfront without surprises, and communication keeps homeowners in the loop from first call through final inspection. These points add up across jobs big and small. DIRT Score 5.0 from 107 reviews on Finds.

“Installed a 48 panel solar system in 2023 on our barndominium. We had been doing research for the previous year and Eastex Solar had the best and most transparent pricing hands down. Cal and Reece provided professional installation and have since provided excellent service. Since then we have installed 2 batteries. The results have been very impressive our net cost for electricity over these last 3 years has been near zero. We figured the system should pay for itself within six years of installation. We highly recommend solar, and we highly recommend contracting Eastex Solar for all your solar/power backup needs.”

“We have had trouble with our solar panels since the original BAD install 6 years ago. I called Eastex Solar 3 weeks ago and was immediately offered a solution. My 34 panels were removed, repairs to my roof were made and all panels were reinstalled with the proper wiring and installation that my original install are did not do. The process was reasonably priced AND professionally done all very timely and I could not be more pleased.”

“The EasTex Solar group is outstanding! They excel at handling unique solar projects and provide personalized solutions, going far beyond a standard installation. I'm thrilled with my solar porch; from the design that complements my home's aesthetic to the quick, efficient execution.”

“I visited with several solar vendors looking for a great company that was based in our state, discovering Eastex Solar which we highly recommend. Eastex's approach to business and their value of relationships provided us the reassurance that we could be first time solar users, with the confidence that we found a partner that would assist us through the full process. They came to our location for a site review and helped me understand how the equipment worked, educated us on the install process and shared their knowledge of which was of great value. This transparency and knowledge transfer made selecting Eastex Solar simply as we forged a relationship with Reece which we did not experience with vendors. Eastex Solar provided a great summary document which defined the exact items we needed, from Texas manufactured panels to the battery system which supports our electric needs in the evenings. Communication was excellent as we moved from the design to the sales closure. The honesty and commitment to our project continued during the install, working with our electric provider to help us gain rebates and continues as we learn details from Eastex months after the installation. There is no doubt that we selected the right company, one that continues to help monitor our system for performance, answers questions about the app that reports system details to us, and is glad to see our results of not paying an electric bill since the system went live as we export more power to the grid than we import. Very glad that we found Eastex Solar and a company that we know will support their system - and us!”

“Eastex Solar did an excellent job on installing our solar panels. They were professional and did the job quickly. They cleaned up after themselves. They were not high pressure at all. Followed up as well.”
